What I draw with

Four ways to put you on paper.

Every commission is worked entirely by hand — no filters, no tracing software. Pick a medium below, or leave it to me based on your photo.

Fine, precise pencil work. Best for clean, timeless portraits.

Bold contrast and soft shadow. Suited to dramatic, moody pieces.

Layered color for a warmer, painterly finish.

Crisp linework with cross-hatched shading. Great for pets and architecture.
